Gilb Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 (edited) Been having a YouTube 'potential headliners' evening and quite frankly this beats everything I've been through... The thought of him playing out on a warm evening in June with 100,000 people packed into the pyramid field singing along sends tingles up the back of my neck! Thoroughly deserving for Glasto 50, and lets face it he's not getting any younger so maybe the last chance to headline....

I remember reading Neil’s comment after updating it, and it isn’t based off anything to be excited about. edit: I don’t remember specifically what was said Edited October 27, 2019 by Andy0808 v5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 There was a rumour, via a poster on here, that a roadie for McCartney's band said they were doing it next year. Think that's the main reason for his re-emergence on the rumours page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slugworth Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 If the Chems were to be booked for next year, wouldn't they have skipped last year and just played 2020? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikkic Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Chems finish touring next month. They ain’t playing next year. They will of course return in 4 years time to headline The Other stage, as is now customary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know where Eyelash was originally billed to play? size of the crowd she had would've been dangerous anywhere smaller than the other.

RarerThanDandyB Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 I really cannot see anything other than Coldplay, Paul McCartney and Taylor Swift for the 50th. It is so balanced and a cracking set of headliners for the festival and BBC. Coldplay are the house band and get big viewing numbers, always putting on a show and that fill the big band headliner slot. Macca is one of the if not biggest acts you can get and since he said its a possibility, to me it sounds like he is booked and wasn't giving anything away while Michael even said hopefully for the 50th. I know what Neil heard but Nick could have been covering it up or wanting the scent to be gone around him. BBC have been going on about him, he has to be and he feels like the only legend around after Elton was ruled out. Legend headliner slot has to be Macca. Taylor Swifts around, biggest names in pop, female representation, gap around Glastonbury, it would feel horrible if the festival missed this opportunity. All three to me define contemporary art and I dont think Glastonbury could get a more balanced lineup. That trio would be the biggest yet and believe thats the most likely at the moment. 75 could always replace Coldplay which I thinks unlikely as I feel Oborne is trying to expose the band any way he can and yes, Foals are big enough but would feel really underwhelming when Coldplay are a call away and are a stadium band that keeps viewers and punters mainly happy. Hopefully we get something soon, to coincide with book release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
